ARC TBC Powell, Jessie & Elizabeth

Post by patrick16101965 »

Hi

Jessie & Elizabeth are relations of my grandmother, Elsie Rebecca Allen nee Barrett.

I believe that they were UK born but lived in Pittsburgh.

Elizabeth remained a spinster but Jessie married, ?married name Kinder and had children.

I haven't been able to find any trace of them.

Thanks

Patrick

Jessie and Elizabeth are both female.

They lived in Pittsburgh certainly for all of their adult lives and died between 1980 and 2000.

Elsie Rebecca DOB was 1907, sorry!


Thanks for the input so far, greatly appreciated.

That's the thing. I cannot find them on Pittsburgh nor the UK. I only know that they were related to the Barrett side of the family.
